Midterm elections can bring uncertainty and periods of market volatility as investors react to changing expectations around policy and the economy. Historically, however, elections themselves have not been the primary driver of long-term market performance.
Investing should be focused on the long term, not the headlines of the moment. Staying focused on your goals and overall financial strategy can help keep short-term market swings in perspective.
If market volatility has you questioning your investments, consider meeting with a financial advisor to review your strategy and make sure it still aligns with your long-term goals.
